About this book
With the brilliance that has established him as one of the world's leading experts on Einstein, Arthur I. Miller reveals the unifying threads that tie together the two most original minds of the twentieth century: Albert Einstein, the century's most important scientist, and Pablo Picasso, its most important artist. Both came of age when it was first becoming apparent that classical, intuitive understanding of space and time were not adequate. Each in his own way - Einstein with relativity, Picasso with cubism - was striving for a deeper, more satisfying way to represent the universe's geometry. In the most important sense, they were both working on the same problem.
